Across dozens of battles and multiple campaigns, players manage a diverse range of troops and military units in turn-based conflict, utilising advanced resources such as air defenses while always being mindful of battlefield environments and cities. You can level up your HQ, capture enemy strongholds and also strengthen your own cities, build landmarks and gain access to powerful Generals based upon historical figures.
